The positive responses were overwhelming, the 200 participants were asked to design their own unique tote Bag.
The tote Bag will be the subject of the auction which will be held on April 1st at One Athens, in Kolonaki, the fashion quarter of the capital of Greece, while the corresponding exhibition will start on Saturday, the 28th of March and will remain in One Athens for a week for all of those who like to visit it.
